It should be the driver's business to logically separate its VLAN
offloading into a preparation and a commit phase, and some drivers don't
need / can't do this.

So remove the transactional shim from DSA and let drivers propagate
errors directly from the .port_vlan_add callback.

It would appear that the code has worse error handling now than it had
before. DSA is the only in-kernel user of switchdev that offloads one
switchdev object to more than one port: for every VLAN object offloaded
to a user port, that VLAN is also offloaded to the CPU port. So the
"prepare for user port -> check for errors -> prepare for CPU port ->
check for errors -> commit for user port -> commit for CPU port"
sequence appears to make more sense than the one we are using now:
"offload to user port -> check for errors -> offload to CPU port ->
check for errors", but it is really a compromise. In the new way, we can
catch errors from the commit phase that we previously ha...
